Bare Bones Fundamentals • Conscious Dance Workshop


  • Perth Waldorf school 14 Gwilliam Drive Bibra Lake, WA, 6163 Australia (map)

An exquisite unravelling of the inner dancer


The weekend immersion will provide you with the physical language enabling you to easily and enjoyably broaden your range of movement on all levels. Moving mindfully, you'll be guided to explore Core Movement Principles of Open Floor; to release stress, increase vitality and dance with fuller expression.
Bare Bones is a dance meditation for building muscular intelligence, the ability to be awake and fluid, to articulate the innate symphony of wisdom and expression waiting just below our skin.

We ask our bodies and let them speak -
What part of me has forgotten how to move?
Where am I fluid and where am I bound?
What gestures purr, hum, hurt, hesitate?
Who do I gravitate towards?

What propels me to shy away and What makes my body sing? Our inquiry becomes one of ratio: How much of our huge life force is devoted to keeping ourselves moving in repetitive, habitual patterns?

How much is left for creativity, loving connections, the willing surrender to change?

Over the weekend we will

- Build sensate awareness and learn to move more freely and expressively through an in-depth exploration and embodiment of the Core Movement Resources.
- Develop physical intelligence and awareness as movers
- Get the body dancing and moving fluidly from the inside out and the outside in
- Expand our movement vocabulary beyond what we think we already know
- Support each other in becoming more articulate, authentic and embodied movers

The goal is a body that moves with it all and tells the tale. This is the infinite choreography of the Bare Bones.

Spending a weekend of dance is a great opportunity to not only grow your dance practice but to connect with the dance community.
